While you're waiting - Artist Recap!

So whilst you are eagerly awaiting the return of Squatter's Den we thought it was time for a little catch up with the artists we have featured so far!


The Bronze Medal

A big well done to the lads in The Bronze Medal who recently rocked the introducing stage at Reading and Leeds! We watched their set with pride and hope this is only the beginning for these lads - we predicted big things from these guys, and it seems that they are proving us right!

The Squatter's Den video of Rabbit Hole is also featured on their Artist Page which is lovely for us!

Here is the bands whole reading set - go watch for yourselves!



(look out at the end for a guest appearance from on of the Out Like A Lion Boys also!)

The band has also released Milk/After You Were Quiet as a single through East City Records.






Mind Museum

The Mind Museum Lads have a new mini album called The Power of Three which is released on September 19th!
We know it will be no less than amazing!

Want to know how we know?
Other than the boys not being able to produce a song any less than incredible - there is a FREE 3 track album sampler available right now!

You lucky devils

And there are even pinky promises from the lads of a tour soon too! And we all know a pinky promise cant be broken! sweet.








Pegasus Bridge


Finally we have to end on a sad note.

With deep sadness we have to announce - although most of you will probably already know - the boys in Pegasus Bridge have decided to call it a day. with a fairly public less than ammicable parting of ways.

It is always sad to see this sort of thing happen, however the boys are all great lads - we speak here too as friends - they deserve every success they achieved and are yet to acheive.
We have seen this band grow from very early on and have been lucky enough to be part of their journey on numerous occassions. It's a shame it had to end here - who knows how far they could have gone - But we here wish the lads, all of them, the best of luck in whatever they wish to do in the future.

Pegasus Bridge are performing a farewell show at Sound Control in Manchester on the 17th of September, all though it's sold out now.

The boys have also left us with two AMAZING songs as a farewell gift! a bittersweet taste of what the future may have held in store...

Heartstrings/BOA are available now on itunes through LAB records.

Have a listen to BOA here - We can't stop listening to it!





As for the other artists we have not mentioned... you may well here more about some of them from us in the near future - wink wink.

Relaunch / Squatters Live

Hi everyone,

Sorry we have been a bit quiet for the past few months, but don't worry we haven't just been sitting on our hands, we have been working non-stop on a big relaunch of Squatter's Den.

We will have more details for you soon as to the specifics of the relaunch including a relaunch date. In the mean time we can confirm that Squatter's Den is going live. Very soon we will be starting a monthly set of gigs in London area that will encompass the vibe and feel of Squatter's Den and will include many of the bands we have featured and are planning to feature on the show.

We have also started designing a range of cool shirts!

For now please remain patient, and remember keep spreading the word about the show.

Until next time.

Coming Soon....

Hey everyone,

Whilst we have been decidedly quiet the last month or so on the upload and blog front, trust me things have been ticking over very nicely in the background.

We have some really exciting news coming very soon regarding our June and July episodes, but you will have to wait just a little bit longer for details!

I thought it would be nice to drop you all a quick message to let you know what we have coming up over the next few months. With our name getting out there finally, we are being inundated by bands and artists wanting to take part. If you are one of those people, our sincerest apologies if we haven't been able to hook you up this time round.

OK so who do we have coming up over the next few months:

We have the wonderful HEART SHAPED THINGS who will be appearing in our April 2011 episode.

We have the ever lovely and beautiful HOLLY PARTRIDGE who will be appearing in our April 2011 episode.

We have the incredible SALTSTONE from Devon who will be gracing our screens in June alongside the always amazing KLAY.

We also have an awesome band called GOODWIN SANDS from the Netherlands who will be appearing in our June episode.

So as you can see you are all in for a treat over the next few months... I am itching to drop the big news now but I really should wait until all is 100% confirmed! Damn me and my excitable nature.


In other news we are also in the process of organizing our first SQUATTER'S LIVE events that will be taking place in London later on this year. They will feature artists we have featured so far in the web-series, in an acoustic gig night like no other. There will be more news on this as soon as we have it.

Finally we want to say a massive thank you to everyone who has supported us and the bands we have featured. A massive thanks go out to everyone who has subscribed to the channel and spread the word! Please keep telling people about us and pointing people to the YouTube page. Word of Mouth and personal recommendation is how we keep going, without you all we would be broadcasting to no-one!

Thanks everyone.

FEBRUARY EPISODE - OUT LIKE A LION & RUFIO SUMMERS

Hi Everyone!

OK so wow! I just noticed we haven't updated this page in some time. Let me explain why...

Well our company FATUM FILMS has just relocated to London number one... so things have been mega hectic with that. Also our Web-Man and my ever suffering business partner Richard M Perry (he'll love me for that!) was broken into a couple of weeks ago. Whilst they avoided anally raping him (which he was most displeased about) they did however steal his laptop and other electrical goodies! So needless to say we have been slacking a little with our online presence of late. Our sincere apologies (like you care at all lol!)

Anyway moving on, February's edition was one of my favorite's so far, we had the amazing OUT LIKE A LION and the incredible RUFIO SUMMERS!

Here are the trailers:





It was a pleasure having them and we strongly suggest checking them both out when you get a chance.

The links to the myspace and facebook pages are at the bottom of this post.

Here are the videos we filmed, enjoy!
